I wrote about the most difficult time of my life as it was happening, and posted it on a blog. I’d been confronted with a chain of strange events that seemed impossible to understand. I tried to dismiss what was happening, but all the clues pointed to one thing, and I was forced to ask myself, “Am I a UFO abductee?”
I started writing ten years ago as an attempt to answer that question.
This is a collection of the most vital posts from the popular blog Hidden Experience. It’s a roller coaster journey of doubts and fears as I wrestle with UFOs, missing time, synchronicities and owls.
The story that unfolds is scary, mysterious, disturbing—and at times funny. It’s an insight into the strange challenges of otherworldly contact. Confronting the darkest unknowns ultimately lead to an awakening of consciousness.
This is the personal journey from the author of the groundbreaking books The Messengers and Stories from The Messengers.

Author Richard Dolan said this about THE MESSENGERS, Mike’s first book on UFOs and owls, “I would characterize very few UFO books as beautiful. But this one is.”

Mike Clelland's latest book is another must-read. His books delve into the high strangeness from personal perspectives, much like Whitley Strieber and John Mack. It's one thing to theorize the topic, it is quite another to actually speak about from an authoritative first person perspective, and that is exactly why Clelland's book can't be put down.
Mike Clelland is an avid outdoorsman, illustrator and UFO researcher. He has written extensively on the subject of alien abductions, synchronicities and owls. It was his first-hand experiences with these elusive events that have been the foundation for this research.
His website, Hidden Experience, explores these events and their connections to the alien contact phenomenon. This site also features over 200 hours of audio interviews with visionaries and experts examining the complexities of the overall UFO experience.
Beyond that, Mike is considered an expert in the skills of ultralight backpacking, and has authored or illustrated a series of instructional books focused on advanced outdoor techniques. He spent nearly 25 years living in the Rockies, and now lives in the Adirondacks.
